Yes, both have same units.
---To do work we need energy
---If you have energy we can work.
Therefore, both are numerically equal and have same units.

I would say work is a type of energy. Heat is another. In the most general form, these are the only two types of energy.

i would say yes (energy is a more scientific way of saying it, or work is more like the act of using/making energy)... do i get the ten points?!?!

Wind, steam, falling water. Waves _might_ be a call, notwithstanding it really is particularly ambiguous - a turbine will be became by wave action, yet a wide-spread turbine layout will require truly some further equipment to be in any respect powerful in such an software.

work is energy that is transfered in and out of a system
